3-methylcholanthrene and Anorexia

3-methylcholanthrene has been researched along with Anorexia in 13 studies

Methylcholanthrene: A carcinogen that is often used in experimental cancer studies.
3-methylcholanthrene : A pentacyclic ortho- and peri-fused polycyclic arene consisting of a dihydrocyclopenta[ij]tetraphene ring system with a methyl substituent at the 3-position.

Anorexia: The lack or loss of APPETITE accompanied by an aversion to food and the inability to eat. It is the defining characteristic of the disorder ANOREXIA NERVOSA.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Anorexia-cachexia is a common and severe cancer-related complication but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown."1.39Proteomic profiling of the hypothalamus in a mouse model of cancer-induced anorexia-cachexia. ( Blomqvist, A; Ihnatko, R; Post, C, 2013)
"On day 16, anorexia has appeared only in CTR and STD-AOX animals."1.39Timing of antioxidant supplementation is critical in improving anorexia in an experimental model of cancer. ( Citro, G; De Luca, S; Fazi, L; Laviano, A; Mari, A; Molfino, A; Muscaritoli, M; Ramaccini, C; Rossi Fanelli, F, 2013)
"While the pathophysiology of cancer anorexia-cachexia is poorly understood, evidence indicates that pro-inflammatory cytokines are key mediators of this response."1.36Deletion of the gene encoding MyD88 protects from anorexia in a mouse tumor model. ( Bäckhed, F; Blomqvist, A; Engblom, D; Ruud, J, 2010)
"Since cancer anorexia mainly results from an initial reduction of meal number and the inhibition of VMN led to an increase in meal number, the early effect of tumor growth on VMN activity may be an early step leading to reduced food intake."1.31VMN/LHA functional inhibition in tumor-bearing rats suggests hypothalamic involvement in cancer anorexia. ( Gleason, JR; Laviano, A; Meguid, MM; Rossi-Fanelli, F, 2002)
